(5,141 posts)He picked Cheney as his veep so I'm assuming not reading the memo was just a convenient ruse for plausible deniability. No doubt they both had intelligence briefings and knew there was chatter...they're both homicidal madmen driven by pure greed.

(23,664 posts)Well, in actuality, Cheney was picked by Cheney. Daddy Bush put Cheney in charge of a committee to select a running mate for his idiot son, and surprise surprise, Cheney recommended himself.

That they're not in jail is a travesty.

(34,661 posts)Haliburton from Bankruptcy. Appears there was a plan to keep some 6 million Barrels of Oil off the market in order to prevent a collapse in Crude prices which would have created a Service Contract nightmare for Dick Cheney's Company and forcing an Chapter 11 Bankruptcy due to lost business. Remember,Haliburton board of directors issued Cheney some 900 million Options at about this time frame,and they had expanded their foot print to include purchases of smaller Oil Service Companies as well as suppliers. Plus their debt load was massive and they were facing servicing issues.
This whole Irag think was a Neo-Con Cluster F--k from the get go and yes our Lame Stream Media played a passive role in not exposing the real truths as to who what where and mainly the why.
